Yarn Along

With one sleeve left to finish on the Mama Vertebrae I tried it on. Just as I had suspected - totally unflattering on me. While I'm not going to frog it just yet it's sitting in time out until I decide what to do with it to make it a better fit for me.

In the meantime I have my 30th high school reunion coming up in 10 days, so why not cast on a shawl to go with my dress?

It's Antarktis and I'm using Briar Rose Sophie which seems to be discontinued because I can't find it on Ravelry or on their site.

It's a nice springy sport weight so I think it will look nice.

I'm still listening to Outlander. And now that the show is on a 6 month break maybe I can actually finish the book before it returns.

Ohhhh it's going to be gorgeous!! A reunion shawl is a great idea!! I knit up a few washcloths the other day thanks to your post. Would you believe we were at the Dollar Store yesterday and I forgot to pick up toothpaste & toothbrushes!!

Oh no! So sorry to hear that you don't like your finished cardi. Would you be brave enough to post some photos of you wearing it? Perhaps another blogger would have some suggestions on how to modify it.
